With Saturday’s clash with the Dons of Milton Keynes being billed as Sir Tom Finney Day, what greater incentive could Graham Westley’s side have to secure their League One status than to record victory on such a great occasion?

A win would see the Lilywhites reach the 50-point mark of relative safety with a half century of points deemed enough to ensure of a League One place next term, certainly judging from the previous ten third-tier campaigns.

However, with talks of rifts and divisions within the camp currently plaguing the current crop of Preston players, such a feat won’t come easy.

Accordingly, the Deepdale faithful are simply urging those who are lucky enough to wear that famous white shirt to put aside any personal agendas and simply do it for Sir Tom.

In their current guise this is the MK Dons’ first ever visit to Deepdale, Preston fans will be hoping it will be one to forget for those travelling from Buckinghamshire.
